Antonio v

Introduction

M23 and Rwanda have several interconnected objectives in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC)

What do they want ?

Protection of Tutsi communities

M23 claims to defend the rights and safety of Tutsi minorities in eastern DRC.

Security concerns

Rwanda justifies its involvement as a response to the presence of FDLR (Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda), a Hutu militia group with links to the 1994 Rwandan genocide.

Territorial control

Rwanda likely aims to establish a buffer zone in eastern DRC to extend its influence and stability.

Economic interests

Both M23 and Rwanda seek to benefit from the mineral-rich regions of eastern DRC, particularly areas with deposits of coltan, gold, and tin.

Regional influence

Rwanda’s support for M23 is part of a broader strategy to maintain its power and influence in Central Africa.

Political leverage

M23 has expanded its agenda to position itself as a champion against corruption in the DRC government, using this narrative to gain support and legitimacy.

Implementation of past agreements

M23 demands the full implementation of the 2009 and 2013 peace agreements, which they claim the DRC government has failed to honor.

Conclusion

Rwanda’s involvement, while officially denied, is widely acknowledged by the international community, including the UN and several Western nations
